Nazi SS Men Reported Recruited
For Foreign Legion in Spain
By th« Associotcd Presi
FRANKFURT, Aug. 27.—United
States Army sources said today there
were “several indications” that Ger
mans—particularly former Nazi SS
men—were being recruited -in oc
cupied Germany for a supposed
Spanish foreign legion in Spain.
These quarters refused to say
whether they believed the reported
recruiting had the support of the
Spanish government.
'The Army report lent some weight
to the claim of a former German pilot
that he would shortly leave Amer
ican-occupied Germany illegally for
Spain to instruct would-be Spanish
flyers.
The 28-year-old former Luftwaffe
fighter pilot said he knew of "dozens"
of German aviators who had reached
Spain by an “underground railroad”
since the end of the war.
Army quarters, asked to comment
on the fighter pilot’s assertions, re
plied:
“There are several indications of
recruiting activities in the United
States zone for a Spanish foreign
legion. Recruits, chiefly from SS
personnel, are reportedly sought for
their military expertness rather
than for their political convictions.”
The Army sources went on to dis
cuss alleged recruiting of former
German Luftwaffe personnel.
“Other reports,” they added, “in
volve German air force personnel,
sut these instances appear to be
:ases of Germans attempting to
eave Germany to find refuge in
Spain rather than German pilots
>eing recruited by the Spanish for ;
1 Spanish foreign air legion.
“While the possibility of such re
_ ■ 1 ■ -I
cruitment does exist, there is no
factual evidence of any recruitment
of German Luftwaffe personnel for
a Spanish foreign air legion.”
The former German pilot, who
asked that his name not be re
vealed. said that German aviators
were in "much demand” in both
Spain and Argentina as • instructors.
"Dozens of our old comrades al
ready are outside Germany,” he
said. "In a year I shall send you
a postcard of a photograph showing
me in an airplane. How do Ger
mans get to Spain or Argentina?
I'll tell you.
"We cannot leave Germany open
ly, so it is done under cover. A
friend of ours manages the whole
affair. He is well known among
German pilots and was a specialist
in the Luftwaffe. He took part in
the Dornier-Val flying boat cross
ings of the Atlantic ahd in the long
distance Condor flights across the
Kirgiz steppes and the Congoland
before the war.”
The excited young German went
on:
"This man has a friend who lives
In Switzerland, and he has con
nections with the proper Spanish
authorities. Prom the Swiss we
shall receive invitations to visit
Switzerland.
"We will apply here for a three
nonths-exit vis and shall not come
jack, of course.
"Prom Switzerland we shall con
;inue the way to Spain across
?Yance. Once there, we shall be
•eceived with open arms.”

Tiny Rock Flying in Circle
Around Sun Discovered
Sy the Associated Press
CAMBRIDGE, Mats., Aug. 27.—A
tiny, hitherto unknown member of
the solar system—a rock 2 or 3
miles in diameter—flying in a great
circle around the sim, has been dis
covered by C. A. Wirtanen, Lick
Observatory, Calif., the Harvard
Observatory reported yesterday.
The asteroid, of about 15th magni
tude when first observed on photo
graphic plates, is far too faint to be
seen by the unaided eye. Dr. Fred
L. Whipple of the Harvard1 College
Observatory, clearing house for
astronomical information, estimated
the size of the rock'and said it was
moving in an almost circular orbit,
almost as far away as Mars, at least
50,000,000 miles farther away from
the sun than the. earth.
Using computations and observa
tions made by Mr. Wirtanen, Dr. C.
D. Shane and S. J. Inglis of Lick
Observatory and Dr. Leland E. Cun
ningham at the University of Cali
fornia. Dr. Whipple said the rapidly
movihg asteroid, apparently never
would approach closer than 50,000,
000 miles from the earth, although
its orbit might lie as near as 16,000,
000 miles to that of Mars.
Punjab, the name of an Indian <
province, means “land of live <
rivers.” 1
